[Xen-devel] OSSTest -- debian-hvm-install, how to see the progress of guest auto installation

["Hu, Robert" <robert.hu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

During the hvm guest auto installation, how can I inspect its progress?
Currently I encountered some problems during hvm auto-installation; 
after waited long time, several minutes, I vnc to it, it is black screen.

I'm using debian 7.2 for guest installation. And I saw Ian C. 's patch
commit c60b6d20b0fd29836a224fdaf9f0d06272144b46

    ts-debian-hvm-install: Arrange for installed guest to use a serial console
    
    So that the guest boot will be logged somewhere useful (the qemu-dm
    log).
    
    It still seems to pickup a "quiet" from somewhere, so it's not as
    useful as it might be, but it is an improvement.

debian 7.2 shall using kernel < 3.15, not sure if this commit causes the problem
I'm meeting.

Anyway, I need to look into its auto-installation process.

Best Regards,
Robert Ho
